DESCRIPTION:

Lovely Lot of Pastel Yellow to Medium Golden Yellow Tanzanian Scapolite Crystal Facet Rough! Most of these stones are a nice medium Golden Yellow and unlike the Pale material that has saturated the market. Roughly 80%+ of this material is high to TOP grade facet rough with most large stones in here capable of cutting large eye-clean or better finished gems. Please note that a few of these stones do have minor inclusions; however, these are typical of Scapolite and many, if not most, of these can be worked around or will facet out to yield eye-clean or better finished gems with a little hard work. These are not small stones and the average weight is about 12 carats! Most of the stones in here are crystal sections with many stones showing partial terminations. Don't miss this bargain!

COOL FACTS:
  1. Yellow Scapolite turns a nice Purple and Lavender once Irradiated in a cobalt 60 unit at 400-500 Megarads. Post and Prior heating lightens color saturation.
